Even in the age of peak TV, there is a lot of redundancy on television. Phryne Fisher rises above the din.March 25, 2019
It's the overall personality and style of the detective herself that make this show a winner.April 06, 2020
The show is on the whole lighthearted but never too precious. And because a different whodunit occupies Miss Fisher every episode, it's easy to put down and pick up.March 25, 2019
The mysteries are interesting, Davis is loads of fun as Phryne and the 1920s costumes are so stunningly impeccable.March 25, 2019
Phryne is exactly the sort of female character we need more of in shows like this.March 25, 2019
Fun and flirty... with banter as dry as Nick and Nora's martinis in Dashiell Hammett's The Thin Man.
